Method Detail

• open

  void open​(DataSpec dataSpec)
     throws IOException

  Opens the sink to consume the specified data.

  Note: If an IOException is thrown, callers must still call close() to ensure that any partial effects of the invocation are cleaned up.

  Parameters:

  dataSpec - Defines the data to be consumed.

  Throws:

  IOException - If an error occurs opening the sink.

• write

  void write​(byte[] buffer,
             int offset,
             int length)
      throws IOException

  Consumes the provided data.

  Parameters:

  buffer - The buffer from which data should be consumed.

  offset - The offset of the data to consume in buffer.

  length - The length of the data to consume, in bytes.

  Throws:

  IOException - If an error occurs writing to the sink.

• close

  void close()
      throws IOException

  Closes the sink.

  Note: This method must be called even if the corresponding call to open(DataSpec) threw an IOException. See open(DataSpec) for more details.

  Throws:

  IOException - If an error occurs closing the sink.
